Because of the comix, Air Pirates Funnies, Walt Disney Productions sued and won a copyright infringement suit against the artists (known as the Air Pirates). Because of that lawsuit, the comix, Air Pirates Funnies, were barred from further sales and any future printings.

A great book, The Pirates and the Mouse - Disney’s War Against the Counterculture was written about this lawsuit (which dragged on for many years) and is highly recommended reading.
